Very short notice chocolate birthday cake for the neighbours' 20 year old grandson. I know they love their 'English' cakes but they have known about this birthday for 20 years! Bless them. Only had icing left over from last season and no icing sugar so it's a good job the lads here are used to being given flowers! A jar of fish stew and a jar of chicken meat in return. Love Bulgaria.Unfortunately can't get on to photobucket so photo later

Not strictly a bake I suppose. My first attempt at crumpety pikelety things (too thick for pikelets but I have no rings for crumpets) Some things are very hard to get hold of here and I fancied some. They are lovely with cold butter and freshly made raspberry jam. Yum yum!

DD & I had a cooking session & made these, 2 sourdough loaves, banana cakes, I cooked all the lamb bones etc from the half lamb I bought before,then stripped the meat & added some to the tagine sauce I'd taken out from the freezer & then we made cous ous with lots of veg,fruit to go with it. I also completed the aubergine parmigiana 'S that I'd made the sauce for on Sunday.Oh & here's the leftovers of the apple pie from the night before& here's the aubergine parmgiana before cooking

I think aub parmigana is my fave food! Or that could be patatas bravas The last time I made it my husband ate most of the whole darned dish. He thought it was mushrooms. He doesn't like aubergine he said So it was "mushroom" parmigana
